At the time of the Clone Wars, many Dathomirianwitches usually spoke Basic, the most prevalent idiom in the galaxy. They would rely nonetheless on another language when chanting their spells and incantations.[1][2][3]Years later, when he came to Dathomir in 8 ABY, Han Solo met a group of witches who included in a whuffa worm retrieving ritual. This group didn't seem to understand Basic and only spoke their own language.[1]

According to the protocol droidC-3PO, the Dathomiri language had been influenced by Paecian. Words such as Wooka for "Wookiee", Jai for "Jedi" (described as "a male witch from the stars") had probably been imported into the Dathomiri language.[1]
